Beautiful and clean house. Very spacious, and great amenities. Nice quiet location a very short cab from a lot of great sights in Kyoto.Really appreciated the shower room with the tub and the large windows. It was also a nice touch that robes, umbrellas, and laundry detergent came with the rental.Just lost one star due to the combination of 10am check-out time, 3pm check-in time, and check-out checklist for the guests. If a crew is coming in at 10:00am to clean and prep the rental, they should be able to adjust the climate control as needed, take out trash, etc. In general, the check-in and check-out times weren’t clearly listed on VRBO when we made our reservation, so we were disappointed to find them out via Japan Experience.

Cushions on the floor should not be considered ‘beds’- or sleeps 6, especially for adults. Location was too far from city center, ended up costing us a lot of money for Ubers to get to sights or restaurants.

Beautiful place

We loved our stay overall. The place was beautiful and spacious, and the architectural details and lighting were lovely. There was only 1 bed, which was a little disappointing to our adult children. Other places we’ve stayed in Japan have specified if a bedroom had only mats, but this listing indicated beds in all 3 bedrooms. It was still a nice place to stay. I only mention this to suggest that the listing could be more accurate if it was clear that only bedroom 1 has a true bed.

BEAUTIFUL property just like in the listing

Incredible marriage of modern western life style and Japanese traditional architectural details. Very, very comfortable to live in and enjoy the history of Japanese architecture. The location is decent, in the middle of a quiet traditional neighborhood and 3 minutes walk to bus lines and grocery stores.

Quaint and Comfortable Luxury

This is among the top five houses for travel I've made worldwide. The home has been masterfully designed with the latest modern conveniences enclosed within spaces that feel genuinely old-school Japanese. The versatile sliding doors between every room, including one to close off the stairwell, make it easy to create privacy for everyone. Visiting in January, the heated floors were a wonderful treat, though the house was quite well heated throughout. The lighting beautifully highlighted the architectural features of the high ceiling over the main entrance and hallway to the kitchen and beyond. The modern onsen in its separate room was nice. The kitchen was well equipped and the provision of coffee and teas was appreciated for the first evening's stay.This home was a wonderful "home base" for our visit to Kyoto and Osaka over a four-day period. We'll recommend it to friends and will certainly seek to stay here again if we travel to Kyoto again.

Beautiful Home in Kyoto

The house was beautiful, tastefully decorated, and had all of the amenities we were looking for. The location was close to multiple bus lines, making it easier to get to all of the places we wanted to see. The beds / futon were very comfortable, and we loved the Japanese bath. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to be able to cook our meals. Close to a large grocery store and pharmacy / drug store.

Amazing House

We tremendously enjoyed our stay. It is a wonderfully designed and furnished traditional Japanese house, with all the latest bells and whistles and comforts. The house has all the basic necessities plus high end appliances. The heated floors in the first floor bathroom were a treat! The location was easily accessible by bus. The KOHYO grocery store a few minutes walk away had a great selection, Highly recommend this house!

Showstopper of a home

This home was perfectly located in walking distance to shops & local restaurants. It was also very easy to quickly flag down a cab when we wanted to travel further away. The home itself has been the highlight of our trip. We spent five days across Tokyo and 4 days in Osaka. But the 4 days we spent in Kyoto and enjoying this home has been the most memorable. Having the 3 rooms allowed each of our adult sons to have privacy. The primary bedroom was splended. Everyone enjoyed the private onsen with the private, peaceful view of the garden. The radiant floors were great in the mornings. The kitchen was well stocked including a must-have coffee machine. The beautiful dinning room with lovely shoji sceens on each wall reminded me of pictures of my mom's home in Yokahama. We brought card games, so having a formal dinning table for us to gather around was just like being home. My husband and 2 boys are really tall, 6' 2" - 6' 4". The tall ceilings & entry ways like the pictures showed made me so happy. My only regret is that I wasn't fast enough reserving my nights and wished I had booked a whole week. I will cherish the memories we made here and took down many ideas we want to incorporate into our home when we renovate. Thank you!
